Two Saturdays ago, Karis and I participated in the Walk for Life for our Crisis Pregnancy Center here in Wilson. We raised money and walked 2 miles, actually Karis only walked a little but she got to help raise money. I asked her why we were walking, and she said, "to raise money to help people like Mommy." I tried to explain to her what a crisis pregnancy center was. I told her that some women don't want their babies, and she responded with, "Why wouldn't she want brother?" It was very sweet and innocent to hear how she understood what I was trying to explain to her.
When you participate in the walk they have drawings for different prizes. Karis won a $25 gift card to Target. Justin and I took her to Target the next Monday and let her pick out a toy. She has never done this before and of course she picked out the first toy she saw, which was a toy for 6 months plus. She then decided she wanted a Dora scooter instead of a bike with training wheels.

That's cute about Karis wanting the first toy she saw! She is turning into such a little lady! Glad that you are doing good and your pregnancy is coming along safely! I look forward to seeing your new little man!
She is so pretty - I just love her little hair bow! What a great thing (the walk) to put your time and energy toward, I know that others are blessed by your sacrifices! :)
So cute to see Karis on her scooter! The boys would love something like that too I'm sure, especially Sam...just not a Dora I I hope! :) I'm sure it will be the center of much sin when we come visit for Thanksgiving!
How sweet! I'm glad she had a great time picking out her dora scooter.. glad she was able to experience the gift of giving.. and receiving!
